Event
DateTuesday, Sept. 2 through Sunday, Sept. 7, 2008
The event will be conducted over six days instead of the previous five-day
format. This will give each age group a day during the schedule for
rest and sightseeing, and will also shorten the duration of most racing
sessions. The dates for the event were chosen to avoid conflicts with
the Olympics and the World Masters Road Championships.

be category 1-3 to enter the points race. Riders in the Madison also
